Lily lay on the couch with James, her boyfriend, who she loved him to death. She remembered every memory that had to do with him.

You were in college, working part time

Waiting tables

Left a small town, never looked back

I was a flight risk

With a fear of falling

Lily remembered when they first started going out. James had tried to get her on a broom with him. But she was way too afraid they were going to fall. That night she thought why does anyone ever bother with love if it never lasts?

Lily finally spoke while they lay on the couch

"Can you believe it?" Lily asked

"What?" James asked looking down at her, catching her eye

"That we're still together?" Lily asked

"Yes, I can believe it, I mean we both love each other and that's all that matters" James said then kissed her

I say "Can you believe it?"

As we're lying on the couch

The moment I could see it, yes, yes, I can see it now.

"James?" Lily asked

"Yeah?"

"Do you remember the day we got together and we sat by the lake?"

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?

"Yes" James smiled at the memory

"And that night you put your arm around me for the first time" Lily added

You put your arm around me for the first time.

"How could I forget?" James asked, his smile grew bigger

"And then a couple months after, I helped you prank the Slytherins"

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter

"That was hilarious!" James exclaimed

"You know what James?" Lily asked

"What, Lils?" James asked

"You're the best thing that's ever been mine" Lily smiled up at me and James leaned down and kissed her

You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Years later, James and Lily were married. One day they just decided to stay in bed.

Flash Forward and we're taking on the world together

And there's a drawer of my things

At your place

Lily started telling James all about her childhood and how her sister and she were always close until she went to Hogwarts.

You learned my secrets, and you figure out why I'm guarded

You say we'll never make my parent's mistakes

But we've got bills to pay we got nothing figured out,

When it was hard to take,

Yes, yes, this is what I thought about

Lily and James were talking about their memories

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?

You put your arm around me, for the first time.

You made a rebel of a careless mans careful daughter.

You are the best thing, that's ever been mine.

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?

You saw me start to believe for the first time.

You made a rebel of your careless man's careful daughter.

You are the best thing that's ever been mine

A couple weeks later, Lily and James got into a fight at 2:30 am. The fight was about how James had gotten home so late.

I remember that fight, 2:30 am

Cause everything was slipping out of our hands

Lily ran out crying, James followed her out onto the street.

I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Lily thought this was going to be the end of them, but James surprised her

"I'll never leave you alone" James whispered and hugged her

Braced myself for the goodbye

Cause that's all I've ever known

And you took me by surprise

You said "I'll never leave you alone."

Lily hugged him and smiled into his chest. James then started to speak

"I remember how we felt sitting by the lake. And everytime I look at you, it feels like the first time I saw you. I fell in love with a careful girl. You are the best thing that's ever been mine" James said

You said "I remember how we felt sitting by the water,

And everytime I look at you, it's like the first time

I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter

She is the best thing that's ever been mine

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter,

You are the best thing, that's ever been mine.

Do you believe it?

We're gonna make it now.

And I can see it,

Yeah, yeah

I can see it now.

James smiled and kissed her

"You are still the best thing that's ever been mine" Lily said after she pulled away
